Im reporting Farmers Insurance agent Tony Davidson's poor ethics of abandoning customers out of what seems like revenge, for switching insurance companies. Tony let me file a claim without reviewing any details of the claim with me and without giving any advice about how it would affect my driving record and insurance premiums. As a result my insurance premiums have doubled for the next three years. The initial claim was for $327.44, which if I had known, I could've paid out of pocket to avoid paying $2,500 in doubled policy charges. The claim was filed because I drove away from a gas pump and the gas station company claimed the fuel pump servicing fee. The incident happened while I was under Tonys policy, but the gas station company didnt ask for compensation until a few months after I had switched insurance companies. Upon receiving the claim I immediately forwarded it via email to Tony, and I asked him to explain how my policy would cover the incident. Tony responded with a one sentence that he had forwarded my email to a claims agent, so I thought that everything was fine. 6 months after the claim was processed my current insurance company notified me that because of that claim my rate doubled. I called Tony to ask why he didnt tell me this would happen. He told me that since I was with a different company he didnt feel concerned about the issue, since he had done his job by forwarding my claim. At one point during the claim filing I had even called Tony to ask him about the process, and at that time Tony deflected my questions and told me to ask my claims agent. When I asked Tony why he didnt raise any red flags when we were on the phone, he responded that he is a busy man, and he highlighted that he didnt take time to advise me since I was no longer his customer. This is shocking since previously Id been with Farmers about 5 years and I was introduced to Farmers through my parents whod been customers nearly 20 years. Working full time as a CNA I earn $14.80 an hour, which will take me 21 extra days of work to pay for this. I also go to school full time and had to take a student loan of $4,000 to pay for my tuition, so I would have rathered to apply that $2,500 to my loans and not for unnecessary insurance premiums that couldve been avoided if my agent had actually done his job in advising me.
